Joe Alwyn and Taylor Swift broke up in early 2023.
“And, right from the beginning, tried to focus on the things that are meaningful for me: friends, family, work, of course,” the Conversations with Friends actor continued. “So noise outside of that, I think I’ve done what lots of people who find themselves in the public eye do, which is just try and ignore it. If you don’t, and if you let all of that other stuff in, and if it starts to affect you and your behavior, you’re living from the outside in. And then you’re pretty f------.”
